when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical
aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect. See Figure 4.4.
Two 45º elbows may be used in place of one 90º elbow. On
45º runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. (216 mm)
horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) vertical run. A length
of straight pipe is allowed between two 45º elbows. See
Figure 4.4.
Figure 4.5 shows the vertical and horizontal offsets for SLP
elbows.

E. Measuring Standards
Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent
diagrams were made using the following standards:
• Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length of
pipe. See Figure 11.1 for SLP for information on effective
length of pipe components.
Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside
mounting surface (ange of termination cap) (see Figure
4.3).
Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of
termination cap.
• Horizontal pipe installed level with 1/4 inch rise per foot.

General Rules:
SUBTRACT 3 ft. from the total H measurement for each
90º elbow installed horizontally.
SUBTRACT 1 ft. from the total H measurement for each
45º elbow installed horizontally.
A maximum of three 90º elbows (or six 45º elbows) may
be used in any vent conguration. Some elbows may be
installed horizontally. See specic vent diagrams.
When penetrating a combustible wall, a wall shield restop
must be installed.
When penetrating a combustible ceiling, a ceiling restop
must be installed.

Class A Metal Chimney
Prior to installing the gas stove, ensure that the existing
chimney is functionally sound and clean.
Have the chimney and adjacent structure inspected
and cleaned by qualied professionals. Hearth & Home
Technologies recommends that NFI or CSIA certied
professionals, or technicians under the direction of
certied professionals, conduct a minimum of a NFPA
211 Level 2 inspection of the chimney.
Replace component parts of the chimney and replace
as specied by the professionals.
See section 11 for venting components

5. Pull the flex pipe down through the ceiling support box,
until it protrudes approximately 3 in. (76mm). Connect
the flex pipe to the retro connector, and attach with sheet
metal screws.
6. Push the flex pipe back up into the ceiling support box,
center the retro connector, and attach it to the support
box with sheet metal screws.
7. The connection between the appliance and the retro
connector may be completed with sections of direct vent
pipe.

1. Remove existing chimney cap.
2. Measure the distance from the top of the chimney to the
bottom of the ceiling support box, add 3 in. (76mm) to
this measurement, and cut a section of 4 in. (101mm)
flex pipe to that length (the flex should be fully extended).
3. Connect the end of the flex pipe section to the underside
of the top adapter, using four sheet metal screws. See
Figure 4.14.
4. Pass the flex pipe down through the center of the
chimney system, and center the top adapter on the top
of the chimney pipe. Drill four 1/8 in. (3mm) diameter
holes through the top adapter, and into the chimney top,
preferably from the side of the top adapter. Ensure that
you are drilling into the metal on the chimney. Twist lock
the high wind termination cap onto the top adapter. See
Figure 4.15 and Figure 4.16.
